Teamfight Tactics (TFT) Basic Items Guide

Basic Items

Items increase your champions’ base stats and can upgrade into stronger items that provide unique effects. In PvE rounds, each monster you defeat has a chance of dropping an item. In Draft rounds, every draftable champion comes with an item equipped. You’ll always see basic items early on, but as the game progresses, you’ll have a shot at upgraded items.

There are eight basic items:

BF Sword: Attacks deal more damage

Recurve Bow: Attack more often

Needlessly Large Rod: Abilities are stronger

Tear of the Goddess: Begin combat with some mana

Giant’s Belt: Gain health

Chain Vest: Take less damage from basic attacks

Negatron Cloak: Take less damage from abilities

Spatula: Provides no stats, but upgrades into various rule-breaking items!

Equip items by dragging and dropping them onto your champions (be careful, this can’t be undone). If you equip a champion with two basic items, those items automatically combine into an upgraded item, sharing the same combination of stats as its components. Every pair of basic items creates a different upgraded item!

Upgraded items can buff your attacks and abilities, grant unique effects, and even change the properties of your champions! Here are just a few examples; you’ll see dozens more during your time in Teamfight Tactics!

Infinity Edge: Critical strikes deal double damage

Locket of the Iron Solari: At the start of combat, wielder and adjacent champions gain a shield

Knight’s Vow: Wielder is also a Knight
